Last week, Amazon.com leaked pricing for
Microsoft's upcoming Windows Vista operating system. Today, Microsoft has
updated its Windows
Vista site with official pricing for the various versions of the operating
system. Not surprisingly, Amazon's figures were right on the money (prices listed as full/upgrade):

Windows Vista Home Basic, $199/$99.95

Windows Vista Home Premium, $239/$159

Windows Vista Business, $299/$199

Windows Vista Ultimate, $399/$259

Microsoft didn't elaborate on Amazon's suggested ship date of January 30, but simply stated that volume license customers would
receive the OS in November while general public availability will be in January
of 2007.
